‘Imperial neo-Bolshevism’ in Kremlin, say Russian Liberals
Liberal International, 19.02.2015
Ahead of opposition rallies organised by Russia’s liberals, Yabloko, to protest President Putin’s meddling in Ukraine, party’s Political Committee has charged Russia’s present regime with “national-imperial neo-Bolshevism.”
Expressing cautious optimism about the implications of the recently concluded Minsk II peace agreement, the party’s Political Committee suggested that the agreement will only be sustained in the long-term if Russia’s foreign policies are fundamentally changed.
LI Vice-President on the Bureau, Baroness Kishwer Falkner, recently addressed the House of Lords in the Parliament of the United Kingdom calling for a wider internationalist approach should peace talks between Russia and Ukraine fail.
